Three knocks on the door made the class interrupt for the meantime.

Sir Giordano went his way to the door to open whoever it was knocking. All the student's eyes are waiting to see who came to save them from their boring Philosophy class. As soon as their professor opened the door and a familiar face to one of Sir Giordano's students come to his curiosity as to why he was seeing a member of the royal guards.

The two had a quick conversation until Sir Giordano shifted his attention to look around the room to see who he was searching for.

"Mister Albrecht, please come here," he said, motioning his hand to come in their direction.

His classmates watched him get off his chair and went his way to them. As he got closer, his curiosity becomes vague to understand the situation.

"What's going on?" he asked, shifting his attention from his professor to the royal guard.

"I apologize for the interruption, young sir, but I do need to take you out of your class right now. You need to go back home."

His forehead creases, trying to guess what he was trying to imply. "Why can't you say this to me now? And you know, I can't go back to the Palace right now."

The royal guard shook his head. "I'm afraid, but you have to come with me to the Palace, young sir."

"Go on, Mr. Albrecht. This must be important for you."

"What about your class? I'll miss it, and I don't wanna miss your class, Sir Giordano."

"That would be fine," he said, chuckling. "I'll send you via email if we have homework or whatever you need to study. For now, get your bags and leave with your guard, understood?"

As he was told to, he went back to his chair just to pick his bag up and told his friends he'll be back and see them later today as soon as he gets back. When he excused himself from his Philosophy class, he was not sure if him being happy he was able to get away with the boring lectures or something he was about to look forward to.

"What did you say to your friends before you leave the room, young sir?" the royal guard named Lieutenant Harrison asked.

"I told them I'll be seeing them later today," he said.

"Hm," he scoffed.

"What was that for?" he queried.

"I'm afraid it wouldn't be the case for you, young sir."

His eyes squinted and stopped following the royal guard just to understand what was going on. Lieutenant Harrison looked back at him and made him continue following him, but he was wondering what was going on.

"Young sir," he muttered, walking closer to him. "I cannot tell you right now, but you'll understand it better when we get to the Palace. The answers to your questions will be carried out once we get there, so please it's time to go."
